In this section all important configuration files are discussed (both with, as well as without, reference to ERP).

In the first sections the user interface and the functions are explained.

Then, structured according to environment variables, the individual configuration files will follow.

[Note] Note

The configuration files of the CAD, PDM, PLM systems can also be found here!

Almost all settings can also be made in a comfortable user interface. This does not require detailed syntax knowledge. See Section 1.1.3.5, “CAD integration administration ” for more information.
